Note to Anon (TGT) 19III

[1] hringtǫpuð ‘the ring-destroyer [GENEROUS MAN]’: Adopting W’s reading of nom. hringtǫpuðr, SnE 1848-87 construes Hringtǫpuðr haldi! Stýrir himinríkis hæfi ok varðveiti, styrki ok staðfesti ‘May the ring-destroyer [GENEROUS MAN] protect! May the controller of the kingdom of heaven [= God] raise and preserve, strengthen and confirm’, which leaves both sentences without an object.
